IN-W vs AU-W Match Prediction: Match 13, Fantasy Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report & More – ICC Women’s World Cup 2025

IN-W vs AU-W: The biggest game for India Women in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025, as they are ready to face the reigning champion, Australia Women, in their next game. This is match no. 13, and it will kick off at 3 PM IST on Sunday at ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. Here are the fantasy cricket tips and details about the coming game.

India Women Preview 

India Women certainly got a reality check in the last game, when they let the game slip away against South Africa in the previous game. They have an out-of-form top order, limited bowling resources, and an inexperienced pace attack. So, India need to work on all these areas to compete against the world’s best side.

• Key Batter: Smriti Mandhana and Richa Ghosh are two batters who can take on Australia if they get going.
• Captaincy: Captain Harmanpreet Kaur has been struggling with her own form. She is a key batter in this lineup and needs to contribute with the bat.
• Batting Strength: The batting unit for India have not performed well at all. Mandhana has looked out of touch, and Pratika and Harleen are very slow with their strike rates. Harmanpreet Kaur and Jemimah Rodrigues have been poor with the bat. Richa Ghosh, Sneh Rana, and Deepti Sharma can’t win the game every time.
• Bowling Attack: Bowling for India is not pretty bad. They have good spinners and decent bowlers. But the issue is that they don’t have a sixth bowling option, which cost them in the last game.

Australia Women Preview 

Australia Women are undefeated, and they have been the best team in the world because of the match-winners they have. Beth Mooney and Ash Gardner showed this this edition. They will be keen to beat India and carry on their form.

• Batting: Surprisingly, Australia have not batted well in this tournament, but because they have so many match-winners with the bat. That is why it is hard to beat them.
• Bowling: The bowling has been top class for Australia. They have a good pace bowling unit and also spinners who are doing well on these pitches.
